As the third day of the ongoing impeachment trial of President Trump wrapped up in the Senate chamber, most of the drama was elsewhere -- with one witness for the Democrats accusing a Republican senator of "defamation" and "slander," and Republicans vowing to aggressively highlight alleged corruption by Hunter Biden.

The off-field spat began Thursday evening on Twitter, when Tennessee GOP Sen. Marsha Blackburn quoted the commanding officer of Lt. Col. Alexander Vindman as saying that Vindman was a "political activist in uniform."

Vindman's legal team fired back within hours.

Blackburn really triggers Leftists. Keep up the good work, Marsha.

She really does great work, I’m so happy she advanced to the Senate. We needed her there.

Boies as in David Boies is a long time Democrat legal hack big time insider so we know what side of the aisle Lt. Col Flounder Vindman belongs to, don’t we?

Vindman is one high and mighty, phony, traitorous, bloated piece of rear echelon [expletive]. Nothing more than looking at him makes every man who was a real combat soldier want to vomit.

In Vindman’s testimony it was clearly apparent he had serious issues with being purposely kept out of the loop he believed he was ‘entitled’ to be in the know about. Further equally upset that the advice that he and other bureucrats recommended weren't followed..... He reminded me of 'teams' in business who work around undesirables who may be part of the team but are only given the basics because they're not welcomed.

She just repeated what his Commanding Officer said.
Why are they attacking her?

GO SENATOR BLACKBURN!! GO, GO, GO!!

She just went way up in my eyes. Up there with Meadows, Nunes, Biggs, and a few others in the House.

His “Policy Dispute” more than likely consisted of his kickbacks being cut off and his fear of prosecution for corruption. I wonder what country his offshore accounts are in?

Reminds me ever so much of that smug, pompous ass Senator Barbara Boxer from California: "“Do me a favor, could you say ‘senator’ instead of ‘ma’am?’ It’s just a thing, I worked so hard to get that title, so I’d appreciate it, yes, thank you.”

Ferret Face, not Flounder. Flounder was loyal to his house.

Democrats have bureaucrats telling them what they want to hear.

If they didn’t have them on the record, their so-called case would be a complete joke.
